AAPN Takeaway: "The 'Last Mile' of the Supply Chain Has Gotten Very Complex"

AAPN News 1 min read

Six speakers, two expert panels, hours of networking and YOU - THAT is the formula for sales and success of the AAPN Annual Conference 2019.

Just one of our speakers is industry leader Paula Rosenblum, Managing Partner of RSR. The title of her talk is The State of Retail 2019: Getting Comfortable With Change.

Paula comes at this topic from your perspective, from the supply chain. That means that despite the title, this is a discussion that you will learn from and apply to your business.

I received her presentation last night and the comment that caught my eye reads, "Most Retail Winners believe supply chain has a positive impact on their performance, but only 1/2 of all others express the same confidence. Close to 1/5 of non-Winners acknowledge that supply chain has had a negative impact on their business. Almost 1/3 find it to be simply covering costs. This is no small thing".

She also wrote, about the speed of delivery and even of production, "The 'last mile' of the supply chain has gotten very complex".
